supporters of proposition 34 says keeping hundreds of inmates on death row costs the state millions of dollars every year in legal costs. they also point to the cases where people convicted of murder were later found to be innocent. opponents of proposition 34 call ate slap in the face for families of murder victims. many death row inmates are against getting rid of the death penalty. a group sent 220 surveys to inmates on death row at san quintin. they received about 50 replies back. only four inmates say they support prop 34. that is because they would lose access to some government paid legal aid. the inmates would still be entitled to repeal their convictions with state paid lawyers but they wouldn't be provided with attorneys to investigate their cases and come up with possible new evidence. >> hey, what are you doing right now? >> coming up how bay area
